L’officier et le bandit.

Un chef de police qui avait vu un officier frapper un bandit avec son bâton avait exprimé sa vive indignation, et déclaré qu’il ne pouvait pas faire moins que de le révoquer. 

« Ne soyez pas trop sévère avec moi », dit l’officier avec un sourire, « je le battais avec un gourdin empaillé. » 

« Quand bien même », persista le chef de police, « c’est une action qui a pu se révéler très désagréable, même si elle n’a pas réellement blessé. Promettez-moi de ne jamais recommencer. » 

« Mais », dit l’officier toujours souriant, « c’était un bandit empaillé. » 

Soulagé, le chef de police voulut signifier sa reconnaissance et tendit sa main droite avec une telle brusquerie que sa peau se rompit à l’aisselle et qu’un peu de paille et de son coula de la blessure. C’était un chef de police empaillé3 .
